THE FOLLOWING SWIMMERS WHO ALL SWAM WELL REPRESENTED THE TEAM AT THIS MEET:-
VILARA, ELLIE, JASPER, ROWAN, NATALIA, ALICE, EMMA,DARCY
THIS WAS ALWAYS GOING TO BE A TOUGH ONE AS WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A 6 WEEK FITNESS PLAN. HAVING SAID THAT THERE WERE NUMEROUS PERSONAL BESTS.
JASPER SMITH BROKE THE BOYS 200 FREE RECORD GOING 2.23 AN OUTSTANDING SWIM SO CONGRATULATIONS TO HIM. MENTION ALSO HAS TO BE MADE OF THE NEWER MEMBERS OF THE TEAM ROWAN AND NATALIA WITH GREAT SWIMS ON EVENTS WHICH MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN IN THERE COMFORT ZONES,
EMMA HAD A BRILLIANT 100 BACK AND HER TIMING ON BREASTROKE WAS SLIGHTLY OUT DONT WORRY EMMA EASILY FIXED AS WE ARE WORKING ON A NEW STROKE AT THE MOMENT. THERE WAS A WELCOME RETURN TO COMPETITION FOR ALICE ON 100 FLY GREAT EFFORTBY THE WAY.
ELLIE HAD A PB ON BOTH HER SWIMS AND DARCY HAD A GREAT 200 FREE AND 100 FLY. WORTH MENTIONING THE FAST SPLIT TIMES IN THE RELAY ALL FOUR SWAM VERY FAST IE ELLIE, EMMA, ROWAN AND DARCY.
THERE ARE SEVERAL ASPECTS WHICH I AM PLEASED ABOUT AND OTHERS WHERE MORE WORK IS REQUIRED. SWIMMING IS NOT AN EXACT SCIENCE EVERY SWIMMER HAS DIFFERENT STROKES AND NEEDS WHICH MAKES THE HARD WORK ALL THE MORE WORTHWHILE.
WE HAVE MUCH IMPROVED OUR STARTS BUT NEED TO WORK ON OUR TURNS SO THAT IS SOMETHING WHICH WILL BE ADDRESSED SHORTLY.
ANYWAY MAXIMUM EFFORT WAS THERE FOR ALL TO SEE.
WELL DONE TO ALL
